NFL Insider Identifies This Patriots Defender As Possible Trade Candidate

Does Chase Winovich have a future with the Patriots?

A third-round pick of New England in 2019, Winovich impressed during his rookie season and was even better early in his sophomore campaign. But the Michigan product saw his playing decrease down the stretch — ultimately playing in just 58% of defensive snaps — before seeing just 14% of the snaps over 13 games this season. Winovich, still a skilled pass-rusher with 11 career sacks, was a healthy scratch in the wild-card loss to the Buffalo Bills.

So, it’s hard to envision Winovich having much of a future with the Patriots.
